And by the data you presented that is correct, the dollar costs for wind and nuclear are about the same: they're both cheap over the long haul with a big initial investment. Problem is in the space of one good windfarm you could put multiple nuclear power plants and get more energy.

As I said before, you are stating that a billion dollars worth of windpower produces 1/100 to 1/1000 the power as a billion dollar nuke. Is that not what you meant?
